Vandals are being blamed for a fierce fire in a derelict chapel.
Firefighters from Odsal were called to the old chapel at East Bowling Cemetery last night.
Crews took an hour to tackle the blaze, which they described as "fierce".
Police are now investigating the incident, which started around 9pm.
A fire service spokesman said: "It's a lovely old building but it's being wrecked. There's been one or two bonfires there in the past but this one was fierce when we arrived.
"It looked as though anything left inside had been piled up. Anything that was in there has all gone now."
